A Timesert would be a better approach; it's a permanent repair. A heli coil might work but you have to worry about it coming out of the thread bore with the next time you remove the pipes. I use red Loctite when installing helicoils to mitigate against that happening but the heat in the cylinder head will melt the Loctite so that won't work very well in that location.
You can try a heli coil and if it does come out, replace it with a Timesert. It goes without saying that be careful drilling out the thread boss, whichever method you choose. It is a tight working area, you want to drill straight and keep the thread bore concentric.
